For our latest issue, photographer and friend of THE FACE Alexandra Leese shot this summer's technicolored beauty trends on a group of teenagers.

Getting pissed in a field is officially back for summer 2022. From moshers to drum and bass heads to rap fans, here’s what the youth will be wearing at Wireless, Latitude, Reading and Leeds and more. We told you subcultures aren’t dead!

Head to head: And just like that, the metaverse finds another way to grab our attention, with collections from some of the greatest fashion houses popping up in Zuckerberg’s Meta. But at what cost? Our sanity, perhaps.

Off the Rails: through casual tailoring and “going out” jackets, the menswear designer is making couch-to-club clothes for the modern man.

Never mind it being a quiet one this season: Martine Rose, Ahluwalia and Robyn Lynch still flew the flag for Great British fashion.

Panting, throbbing and a little humid, the designer’s SS23 collection shrinks proportions and winks to the sexual fantasies of London’s queer culture.

Off the Rails: Recently worn by FKA twigs, the CSM grad is as influenced by French philosophers as she is Francis Bacon. Oh, and she’d have Buddha and Angelina Jolie over for dinner.

The duo have collaborated on a new exhibition, The Uncanny Valley, bringing together their surreal takes on everyday scenes.

Head to head: the red, white and blue was unavoidable this Jubilee weekend. But with a history spanning Geri Halliwell and the far-right, can the Union Jack make a Cool Britannia return?

With a finger on the pulse, and a deep adoration for the women around her, designer Supriya Lele is striding in a vibrant, nuanced lane of her own.

In their latest pairing, ’70s and ’80s silhouettes are reimagined in only the brightest of colours – ready for a summertime proper.

Year on year, the art school’s BA Fashion Communication course churns out the kind of talent that finds its way to a shiny mag cover near you. 2022 is no different.

Off the Rails: This week, we meet Dutch designer Alyssa Groeneveld, whose graduate collection scored praise on and off the pitch, challenging modern masculinity in the process.

As seen on: The celebs have been out wearing pearl necklaces, archive Versace, new Versace, trusty blazers, gimp masks and bloody massive Balenciaga boots. It’s called fashion, darling.

This year’s glittering students opted to celebrate rather than present us with a dark, dystopian future. Thank god – it’s the shot of adrenaline we all needed.

The latest in the hotel’s global takeover is only in our favourite bloody party spot. Grab your Speedos and say a prayer, you lot. It’s a riot.

As Manchester City win a fourth Premier League title in five years, we meet the talismanic midfielder with the world at his feet, a Gucci ambassadorship and the kind of megawatt charm that’ll burn through English football for the next decade.

As seen on: this week, Chloë Sevigny got hitched in Jean Paul Gaultier, Beabadoobee cropped-out and Paloma Elsesser launched her new collab with Miaou. Two very big thumbs up.

Off the Rails: Once Ashley Williams’ intern, the Kiwi designer has just launched a brand-new collection channelling the irreverent spirit of London’s youth. Here’s how she made it happen.

Head to head: This week, our favourite celebrity did her food shop in a bikini. She looked brilliant, but do the same rules apply to us normies? THE FACE debates.

This season, creative director Alessandro Michele was giddy with optimism, and by the end of the show, it almost seemed like an illegal (well-dressed) rave.
